About

A product leader with builder instincts.

The combination I bring is simple: I can shape direction, align teams, and stay close enough to the work to make smarter decisions.

I have a computer science foundation and a career built at the intersection of business value, customer experience, and technical execution.

At enterprise companies, that has meant leading cross-functional initiatives, improving adoption, navigating dependencies, and building trust with stakeholders across finance, marketing, risk, engineering, and operations.

Outside of that, I’ve also built and launched products myself. That keeps my product judgment practical and execution-oriented.

Strategic but practical

I like clear priorities, strong business logic, and decisions grounded in what will actually move the product forward.

Comfortable in ambiguity

I’m effective when a team needs structure, momentum, and judgment rather than just more process.

Close to the execution

My technical fluency helps me partner well with engineering and keep product conversations grounded in reality.

Focused on outcomes

I care about measurable progress, not just activity. The work should ladder to customer value and business results.
